This is my first tabbing attempt. I happened upon this song recently and I want so
to find a heavily distorted electric system to wail this song out on.
This isn't the whole song, I don't have the harder parts down at this point, but I have
and pieces of the whole song. Feel free to use this in making a better tab, like I
I'm new at this so just have fun with it if it isn't to horrible to understand.
Tuning: It's tuned DOWN 3 frets (The 4th string should be a 'B'), I'm almost certain, I
am not sure what that tuning in particular is called.

The stuff above has some other fills that appear in between the rounds that I haven't
up on enough yet, I'm just roughing it out on my acoustic at this point.
Verse
10s and 12s, not 1s, 0s and 2s
e|-------------------------------------------------|

G|----------------------------------12-12-14-14----|
D|----------------------------------12-12-14-14----|

Chorus
e|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|----1-1-1--------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|----2-2-2----7-7-7--9-9-9----------------------------------------------------|
A|----2-2-2----7-7-7--9-9-9----------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------5-5-5--7-7-7----------------------------------------------------|
There is a really sick bridge here, but I don't have it down yet
Then back to the Verse
The next bridge is just the Verse with a different drum beat
Then back to the Chorus
Then a bunch of other stuff I haven't learned well enough yet.
The there's this little bridge/interlude thingy:
e|----------555444-------555444-------555444-------555444-------------|
B|----555333-------555333-------555333-------555333-------------------|
G|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
Then it goes into a part where it's the same notes, just chorded (I haven't figured that
yet either).
Then through another rigamaroll of parts that I don't have down yet.
All in all, an exceptional song in my opinion, I hope you have as much fun listening to
playing it as I am.
